NOTHING BEATS A GREAT TEMPLATE
Preface
Content
Interactive design aids for concrete elements in accordance to BS EN 1992
Guidelines of use
After installing a free trial or demo version the interactive templates will be available free of charge.
The only requirement is a registration at www.VCmaster.com.
The examples provided have been created using VCmaster. All annotated and illustrated design
aids can be used as a basis to create own templates. In order to do this a full version of VCmaster
is necessary.
All templates are linked to various databases by TAB()- or SEL() functions. For instructional
purposes these links are displayed in this document, but can also be hidden when printing.
What is VCmaster?
VCmaster is a software application for technical documentation specifically designed for engineers.
The unique software concept integrates all structural design and CAD software. Universal
interfaces guarantee data transfer, so that the output of all programs can be transposed.
Beside its functions for documentation, VCmaster offers an intuitive concept enabling engineers to
carry out calculations. The input of mathematic formulas can be executed in natural notation
directly in the document itself. The software significantly supports the reuse of structural
calculations and documents. VCmaster simplifies modifications and adjustments and automates
standard tasks. Collaboration with work-groups or with other offices and clients is uncomplicated as
well. As a result, processing time and costs can be considerably reduced.
